Problem with my Google account - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All, I've being trying to find something related to this, but so far didn't find any solution. Since a few days a few apps like Facebook, 20 minutos, Resultados de futbol, etc, simply stopped working (when I open the app it just closes in a few seconds, and no "Error" message is displayed). I though that it was a problem with my Samsung S4, so I changed for a new one, but the problem was not solved. So I changed my phone again for a Motorola Moto G (3rd Gen) and noticed that the issue still happening. I had the idea of restore the phone and change the google account for another new, and... BANG!! all the apps work now. So the problem is with my google account, seems strange for me, maybe you know about this issue and can give me some help. Sorry if posting in the wrong section.
Thanks in advance!

Run a logcat on with your old account. It will tell you what is forcing it to close.

[Q] Market Web Installs never start downloading.

Market web installs from "market android com" never start. ('m not allowed to post links)
Under "My Devices" in the settings page it shows my Atrix, It has a "Registered on" date (today) but it doesn't have a "Last Used" date (it shows a dash).
I have followed all the suggestions on the help page. (log in, log out)
My Market App version is 2.3.2.
Google Talk works. The Market App works. Clearing Data and Cache for the Market doesn't help any.
I'm signed in with a regular Google account. (not an apps account)
Any suggestions?
This might sound obvious, but have you tried restarting it or resetting it?
Yep. Lots of restarts.
Does the market work on anyone else's Atrix or is it just me?
I read somewhere that if you open Google Talk and sign out then sign back in, it should get the market web installs working because of a communication problem.

Yeah, that's on the help page. Didn't work.
Empty market cache, and uninstall market upgrades (if any). Had the same problem before with other phones, I do not think this is atrix specific.
Getting the market to upgrade afterwards required some manual steps as well. Too lazy to look that up now though, just google it.

I emptied the cache and uninstalled updates. On the first launch I got the old market, on the second launch it had upgraded back to the new one. I also tried a reboot. Still doesn't work. Good idea though, thanks.
Bump! Any fixes for this? I'm having the same issues. The Market web store even lists my phone being last used on Feb 25 (the last day it was pushing app downloads from my computer). However, when I download apps from my phone, it shows up on my account online.

I thought I was having this same problem, but I was in battery saver mode and had auto-sync disabled. After re-enabling it, the downloads just began automatically.
I had the same issues at first and tried all th above fixes and the ones on the google help page. nothing worked at first. i waited a few hours and tried downloading again and everything worked fine. i can't really explain how but it just started working.
I have had this problem for 5 days =/ Now I just chrome to phone the link and open it with market =/ I have done all the above, contacted Google and posted at Motorola Site. Nothing works.
Darn I am having the same issue. Just got my Atrix an hour or two ago...so we will see what happens. I'll try and keep you updated.
Edit: Mine just started working, so I don't know what the problem with yours is. Hope you get it worked out.
I have same problem here with my Hd2 DFT android Rom maket works fine but it never start downloading any apps :/ please some help ??!!
Do you have apps/the market to update only on wifi? And you haven't opened the apps to have them generate an, "I'm here", marker for the market to send you stuff, when you were hooked up to wifi?
I wondered the same thing...
Good news guys Google talk was not working for me so I re flashed my phone and reconfigure it now Google talk work and market too I don't know if it will works for you but for me it working great now hope it help a bit
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Port 5228
This may not help everyone, but I ran into this same problem.
Each day, my downloads weren't sent to my phone and my gmail wasn't pushing consistently, but by the time I got home, everything seemed to be working again. I noticed that I was also unable to log into google talk on my office's wifi (which seems to be the key to getting everything else to work). A coworker with a samsung android phone was having the same problem.
We worked with our network administrator to unblock certain ports on the wifi firewall. We finally resolved this issue by opening port 5228. Now everything is pushing correctly. See if this port is blocked on your wifi.
The weird thing that kept throwing me off is that even if I switched off wifi and used ATT, it was still having problems for a period of time.

[Q] google hangouts, trouble

Hey guys,
So for some time now I noticed that my google talk app was working intermittently. I thought it was a one day thing, but the problem persisted. It wasn't until by chance that I went to the google play store and searched for the new app, google hangouts, and selected "open" from the play store that it worked and signed me in without any problem. So I thought to download the app, when I did and tried to sign on, it always says, "couldn't sign in because we couldn't reach Google, try again" Has anyone else had this problem?
Also I am unlocked and rooted. In addition I read this thread from this forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2280486&highlight=google+hangouts
but they trick they suggested didn't work for me.
Has anyone else experienced this issue on their rooted htc one and solved it?
Thanks in advance

I've got same issue Nexus 4 everything up to date. Tried reboot, uninstalling updates. Changing users, but without any success.
so,it is not isolated issue..that is good thing
anybody has an idea what to do?
It has been acting a little stupid even when I search from my laptop lately also.
I don't think it is device specific at all so probably nothing wrong with yours.
nope,tried more than 5 connections

[Q] Applications from Google not working on tablet

Hello everyone, my problem is the following. A few days ago a bought a new tablet and rooted it. Everything was fine until now. Now when I try to open Gmail, Play store or anything Google related after a few seconds i get back immediately to my home screen. I tried to reset my phone but after that when I go to Settings->accounts>add account and click on Google to add my address nothing appears, also when i click on sign in in Youtube nothing shows up. I also tried to clear the caches, to enable the download manager and everything i saw on the forum but nothing helped.
Also i may have deleted something, I'm not sure. Help me please. How can i fix this? Thank you!!

Infamous Google Play 403 error

A lot has been said about this error, but I still can't fix the damn thing.
Clearly it's not the phone, it has to be something with the account. This is my daughter's phone and when I formatted/installed and set it up with my Google account, Google play works perfectly fine. I tried probably 6-7 times to wipe/re-install and keep getting this error.
The interesting thing is that there are 2-3 apps that it does download (Titanium, ES File Explorer, SMS Backup) and of course the Google apps, but it refuses to download other non-Google apps and refuses to update anything.
I tried clearing, removing account, add account - you name it. It won't budge.
Any solution to this, because the phone is really useless like this.
I am using cm-11-20140731-NIGHTLY-i9100 and the phone is rooted of course.
Thanks.
Anyone with an idea?

You could switch on "USB Debugging" in the Development Settings, and read/search the log with "log cat", while downloading a non-google app.
If something is wrong, then it will be in the log files (and CyanogenMod Builds are perfect for this, because they are often running in Debug Mode).
I've done this very often, and it helps almost every time :victory:
Google Error Codes are one thing, reading the logs another ^^
If you find something suspicious, we can investigate it and find a solution.
